Visitor Information Center and Track Bleachers Expansion
Project Description
The project provides a new Visitor Information Center at the existing Track House at the corner of Campus Drive and Galvez Street, a key visitor entrance into the campus from El Camino Real.
The South Track Bleachers will be expanded to provide additional bleacher seating as well as newly developed space underneath the bleachers to accommodate the relocated Bookstore operation. The space currently under the South Track Bleachers is used for track team storage and operations for events at Cobb Track and Angell Field. In addition, the new bleachers will be provided with a media platform.
The North Track Bleachers will also be expanded to provide under bleacher space for a new ticket office for track and field events as well as storage for the track team, which is being relocated from the South Track Bleachers. Once the track bleacher expansions are complete, the Track House will be remodeled to provide new space for the Visitor Information Center. This will include a reception area and pre-function space, University displays and materials, and conferencing and meeting space for individual prospective students and groups. In addition, the Track House lot will be configured to provide a staging area for bus parking and the organization of tours.
